CrocApp documentation

CrocApp sends files, folders and text to another device with a short code phrase like cape-junky-widow. There is no account, and the two devices do not need to share a network. It runs on iPhone, iPad and Mac.

It is a graphical front end for croc, the command-line file-transfer tool by Zack Scholl. A code phrase from the croc command line works in the app, and the other way round.

• Requirements and install: get the app and check your device is supported.
• Your first transfer: one send and one receive, step by step.
• Code phrases and links: share a code by voice, QR code or link.
• Troubleshooting: a transfer that will not connect.
• Security and privacy: what is protected, and what each server sees.

The sidebar lists the rest. The FAQ has short answers and a glossary.
